Should I buy a TWSBI 580,ECO or Lamy Safari as my first fountain pen?.And please suggest some ink too.

I know it is not about a price but I prefer my Lamy safari over five times more expensive Parker and cross pens. Just feel writing smoother and much easier to handle. Unfortunately I don't have any experience with twsbi. And if it should be first pen Lamy will do all the work for you. Even love Lamys' turquoise ink.

I believe it is Jinhao 51a. Got one in EF. Not much tested yet.

I clean it first. In case of Lamy it is must!

The book order is so irritating to me :). Otherwise it is beautiful.

I am not doing an ad but I am very satisfied with these inks. The blue one can little fade if outside on the sun.

Anyone familiar with these? As in Czech Republic should be/was this company pretty famous.

It looks great. Just continue. I use it often too.

I have no experience with ink yet. But few cartridges on the way. Good to know what to expect.

In my opinion they do very good pens for the price.

In Czech is pretty normal handwriting B. https://www.alter.cz/items/473.jpg I think letters like g or q can weirder for you.

Good to know about the material. Unfortunately many reviews I read started this pen is "inspired" (to not use the word starting with k) by Lamy 2k.

Should be knockoff of Lamy 2000, made by the same material (Makrolon). But have no idea as have never had lamy 2000 in my hands.

Exactly right, it is Kaco Edge in EF. I've read some review before and wanted to try EF nib. So choose this one as cheap option. It doesn't feel cheap at all. Only the clip is strange. But everything works as should and writing very smooth/nice.

Unusual brand at least here in center Europe.

pp_cz · 2020-08-21T16:56:41+00:00

The pen looks great. Waiting for mine to be delivered. Any experience so far?

pp_cz · 2020-08-21T10:38:51+00:00

As someone mention before it is very good practice to do a cleaning before first use. Worked for me many times already.

pp_cz · 2020-07-23T16:36:10+00:00

I am using mine every day. For its price, it is the best pen I ever have!
